We have about 10 days left in September in which we are celebrating our 2nd birthday. I figure we should close out with a bang.  We already gave away some free service, and some sweet discounts so what’s left?

Let’s start with: T-shirts.

We like to think our t-shirts are famous, as famous people wear them at least. They are super soft American Apparel brand and a perfect fit.

We’ll choose 10 winners for a special swag delivery right to your door.

Then how about: More discounts and free page.ly service.

For realz. If your current site runs WordPress or you have been meaning to start one we can take care of you. Automatic updates and the bulletproof security thousands of customers rely on are just a click away.

How to snag free service: Sign-up for a new account* before Oct 1st 2011 to be eligible to win 1 year of free service. We’ll make it easier with another promo code: Use code DUECE for 20% off (code expires Oct1)

Hot damn. We all love them premium themes from Press75, UpThemes, AppThemes, StudioPress and Woothemes.

Bonus Round: Guess the true identity of El Vaquero Furioso and win a Free trip to an upcoming US WordCamp as a member of his entourage.

This one is for all the marbles. Some time ago we announced that we hired our 2nd employee El Vaquero Furioso. His true identity like that of El Chupacabra Luchador remains a mystery. If you can guess his true identity page.ly will fly you out to an upcoming WordCamp as a member of his entourage and our guest.

The man, the myth. The Angry Cowboy.

How to score this sweet prize: This one you have to pay attention to as the rules are very strict and will be enforced.

1. You cannot already know who it is. There are just a handful of people that may know and if you are one of them you are ineligible.
2. If you do know him, and you tell someone for the purpose of this contest you suck and your pet run away, and whomever you tell will be ineligible.
3. You may not disclose your guess publicly or to anyone besides us (see below) as his true identity will be kept sacred to be unveiled at said WordCamp you will attend with him. Really folks.. please dont be a tool and ruin it for everyone else, lets have some fun with this. We will play the Kevin Bacon game and find out who told you and both your pets will run away.
